Key-note speaker: Chang Sun Kang (Seoul National University, Korea)
Chair: Emmy Roos, Washington Group International, USA

Do you feel that sufficient breadth has been covered on this area within the session? Are there any areas you would have liked covered that are missing?

Some of the areas that were missing in this session will be (were) discussed in other sessions. These areas are:

• The special role that the young generation can play in public information - will be/was discussed in the second public information session, Developing Trust and Transparency with the Public II.
• How to provide objective information to the mass media Ц will be/was discussed in the media forum.

Other areas of interest that have not been covered in this conference are:

• How to communicate with opinion leaders (politicians, NGOs, intermediary organizations).аThis includes comparative studies between public opinion and political opinion: often the politicians take a certain position because they assume that is the publicТs opinion, even though that is not always the case.а How do we prevent that from happening?
• How to link nuclear to the economic advantages of nuclear

Are there any issues that the audience felt strongly about and if so why?

Are there any learning points we could take away for future presentations of this subject or for the conference sessions in general?

This session went quite well. Everyone stayed more or less within their allotted time and the presentation quality was good.аThere was sufficient time for questions and the session ended exactly on time.

Do you feel that within your countries the publicТs acceptance of nuclear power as a stable energy source is growing?
